A hollow conducting spherical shell has radii of 0.80 m and 1.20 m, as shown in the figure. The sphere carries a net excess charge of -500 nC. A point charge of +300 nC is present at the center. (k = 1/4π ε0 = 8.99 × 10⁹ N · m²/C) The radial component of the electric field at a point that is 0.60 m from the center is closest to

A. zero.

B. +7500 N/C.

C. -7500 N/C.

D. +5000 N/C.

E. -5000 N/C.
